Article Abstract

The Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Project is in its third phase of creating a comprehensive catalog of functional elements in the human genome. This phase of the project includes an expansion of assays that measure diverse RNA populations, identify proteins that interact with RNA and DNA, probe regions of DNA hypersensitivity, and measure levels of DNA methylation in a wide range of cell and tissue types to identify putative regulatory elements. To date, results for almost 5000 experiments have been released for use by the scientific community. These data are available for searching, visualization and download at the new ENCODE Portal (www.encodeproject.org). The revamped ENCODE Portal provides new ways to browse and search the ENCODE data based on the metadata that describe the assays as well as summaries of the assays that focus on data provenance. In addition, it is a flexible platform that allows integration of genomic data from multiple projects. The portal experience was designed to improve access to ENCODE data by relying on metadata that allow reusability and reproducibility of the experiments.

Traditional drug discovery methods like high-throughput screening and molecular docking are slow and costly. This study introduces a machine learning framework to predict bioactivity (pIC₅₀) and identify key molecular properties and structural features for targeting Trypanothione reductase (TR), Protein kinase C theta (PKC-θ), and Cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) using data from the ChEMBL database. Molecular fingerprints, generated via PaDEL-Descriptor and RDKit, encoded structural features as binary vectors.

Drug absorption significantly influences pharmacokinetics. Accurately predicting human oral bioavailability (HOB) is essential for optimizing drug candidates and improving clinical success rates. The traditional method based on experiment is a common way to obtain HOB, but the experimental method is time-consuming and costly.

Photonic Reservoir Computing (RC) systems leverage the complex propagation and nonlinear interaction of optical waves to perform information processing tasks. These systems employ a combination of optical data encoding (in the field amplitude and/or phase), random scattering, and nonlinear detection to generate nonlinear features that can be processed via a linear readout layer. In this work, we propose a novel scattering-assisted photonic reservoir encoding scheme where the input phase is deliberately wrapped multiple times beyond the natural period of the optical waves [0,2π).

Background: Most RNA-seq datasets harbor genes with extreme expression levels in some samples. Such extreme outliers are usually treated as technical errors and are removed from the data before further statistical analysis. Here we focus on the patterns of such outlier gene expression to investigate whether they provide insights into the underlying biology.

Temporal transcriptomics reveal crucial networks underlying jasmonate-mediated diurnal floret opening and closure in rice.

Diurnal floret opening and closure (DFOC) is essential for rice reproductive development and hybrid breeding, yet transcriptional dynamics and underlying regulatory networks remain poorly characterized. Here, we conducted high-temporal-resolution transcriptomic analyses of lodicules to dissect DFOC regulatory networks in two japonica rice cultivars. Analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) uncovered core genes shared by both cultivars, primarily associated with jasmonic acid (JA) signaling and cell wall remodeling.
